BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN THE INDUSTRY AND ACADEMIC PROGRAMME.

Nigeria Entrepreneurs Forum recognizes the challenges been faced by the Nigerian Youths, especially as they relate to job placement and livelihood strategies after graduation from tertiary institutions. With approval of the National Youth Service Corps, NEF has developed the NYSC-NEF Bridging the Gap between the Industry and Academic Programme. The programme is designed for Nigerian graduates in transition from the National Youth Service Corps to the work environment.

The programme provides the NYSC members with Entrepreneurship and Employability skills training needed to navigate their way to success. Through the programme, graduating corps members are able to receive engagement or employment with the Industry. Others have been empowered in work ethics and employability skills, to find it easier to secure employment.
